OPERATION AND SUPERVISION
OPERATION AND SUPERVISION
Normal operation and supervision includes all activities to be done to assure a smooth
and trouble free operation of the complete plant against the lowest costs as well as to
guarantee the safety of the employees working at that plant.
Golden rule
The satisfactorily operation of a diesel engine depends mainly on the
quality of the systems that support the engine.
In order to guarantee a trouble free and smooth plant operation one should take into
account the following remarks.
1. 1. There is no automatic supervision or control arrangement that replaces an
experienced engineer observations.
It is not only a matter of FEEL, LOOK and LISTEN, but also a correct
interpretation of signals from monitoring devices. Do not jumper safety
devices in case of malfunction, but make the safety equipment reliable. In
case the malfunction can not locally be solved contact Stork--Wärtsilä
Diesel.
1. 2. Have the plant in operation in a way as to which the plant is designed to:
1. 2. 1 The operator has to know what normally can be expected of a plant
in operation and ought to have admission to all relevant technical
data being part of that plant such as:
-- testbed-- and trial protocol
-- manual, parts catalogue and sub--suppliers manuals
-- engine log book for each engine etc.
1. 2. 2 The operator must have full confidence in the process values.
The indicated process values must be true and within small
tolerances.
1. 2. 3 The operator should, by consequent keeping the engine and/or
installation logs, be in time aware of all changes in engine and
installation processes and be able to take necessary corrective
actions. For an advised observation list, see chapter 4A, section 4.
1. 3. The employees involved should have more than marginal
knowledge of the on--going processes in the engine and installation.
1. 3. 1 The basic acknowledge to be gained by intensive basic studies, by
long term practical experiences on comparable installations and
studies of the relevant manuals available.
1. 4. The safety of the employees should, during their stay at the plant, be
guarantied in an optimum way.
1. 4. 1 Only under safe working conditions of the employees a safe running
situation of the installation can be realised. Unsafe locations in
general will be avoided.
1. 4. 2 Safety of employees includes also the use of adequate clothes and
shoes complemented with helmed, glasses, gloves and ear
protectors.
1. 4. 3 Furthermore safety of employees depends largely on the observing
of the rules.
